Adele announces first tour since 2011

Fans applauded the tour, Adele’s first in four years, on Twitter while media sites noted that the 27-year-old singer appeared to have overcome her self-professed fear of performing before large crowds.

In the video, she said: “Hello, it’s me, Adele…”

In a video clip, the Brit songbird opens up by saying: ‘Hello, it’s me, Adele…God, I can’t even say that anymore!’

Adele will kick off her tour with two nights in Belfast on February 29 and March 1 and then she plays two further night’s at Dublin’s 3Arena on March 4 and 5.

Now celebrating her record-breaking success with new album “25”, Adele will head out on the road for a series of arena gigs in February and March next year.

Turns out, she is in fact going on tour.

United Kingdom tickets on General Sale will be available from 9am on Friday December 4. But she seemed up for this one, her first since 2011.

In case you’d forgotten, the singer has been making a point recently of telling people how she didn’t think she could manage a world tour any time soon.

Being the first artist EVER to sell more than 3 million copies of an album in a year in the UK.

The record for the fastest single-week album sales in America was previously held by boyband *NSYNC, who sold 2.416 million copies of their album “No Strings Attached” in 2000. So those of you in the States either better prepare for a European vacation, or just, you know, be sad.
